I once bought a 1951 Bowman Bill Dickey from batterbox. The description said something about it being between two pieces of plastic. I thought it was weird but hey all my good cards are between plastic. I got the card and it was laminated and unable to be removed. I sent it back.

I am amazed you had a problem with Battersbox. I have had many transactions with them and never a problem.

Perhaps I am missing something, but no stock photos used here from the same seller. But then again, this is no $9.00 common!

"Please Take Note"

The photos we use are STOCK PHOTOS! They are not the actual products. A good % of the time, unique jersey pieces shown in photos WILL NOT MATCH ACTUAL PRODUCT YOU WILL RECEIVE. If you want to know the specifics of a card, we will be more than happy to forward you a scan, please send us an email.

This was in red bold type in the auction. OP should just own it and move on. A little personal responsibility here.

Stock photo or not, the card was described as GOOD and it is POOR at best. Personal responsibility with deceptive advertising?

Edited to add: the card probably wouldn't even grade a 1 (POOR), it would probably only grade as AUTHENTIC.

Well OK David I hear you, but reading it quickly the OP's complaint seemed to be that he did not send the card in the scan.

I was surprised to one of my favorite sellers . It wasn’t really a problem is sending a message saying I thought it was in a penny holder or something like that. I didn’t know it was laminated and didn’t want the card. I mailed it back and they gave me a full
refund.

In unrelated news this was my second attempt at buy a 1951 Bill Dickey. The first time the seller canceled the transaction because I ask when he was going to ship it. It was really because I paid 5.50 for it .
